2Q17 earnings. Net income grew to $180MM, or $1.74 per share for the quarter.
Additionally, revenue surged 21.83% to $1.13Bil, driven by organic revenue
growth from all its segments.

$ROP completed its previously announced acquisition of Deltek. $ROP funded the acquisition with proceeds from its recent notes offering, borrowings under its credit facility and cash on hand. Deltek is the global provider of software and information solutions for project-based businesses serving niche markets.

$ROP priced its public offering of $500MM of 2.800% notes due 2021 and $700MM of 3.800% notes due 2026. The offering is expected to close on Dec. 19, 2016. Net proceeds will be used to fund the purchase price of the previously announced Deltek acquisition. Remaining net proceeds, if any, will be used for general corporate purposes.

$ROP agreed to buy Deltek. The deal is expected to be accretive to $ROP's 2017 cash flow. Including financing costs, deal is expected to add $80MM to $ROP's 2017 free cash flow. $ROP expects Deltek to deliver $535MM of revenue and $200MM of EBITDA in 2017. $ROP expects deal to have limited impact on 2017 EPS due to non-cash amortization expense.

$ROP agreed to buy Deltek in an all cash transaction valued at $2.8Bil. The acquisition will be funded by cash on hand, borrowings under $ROP's existing credit facility, and new debt, which $ROP plans to issue this month. The transaction is expected to close prior to the end of this year.

$ROP's BoD declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.35 per share. The dividend is payable on Jan. 23, 2017 to stockholders of record on Jan. 9, 2017. This represents 17% increase over the dividend paid in each quarter of 2016 as well as the twenty-fourth consecutive year in which $ROP's dividend has increased.

$ROP, which acquired ConstructConnect for $632MM, reported that ConstructConnect deal would add about $0.10-0.15 in the next year. The company added that it will be able to update about this deal once the purchase accounting is finalized.

For 4Q16, $ROP expects that Energy Systems and Controls segment, the company's smallest segment, to have muted growth. Industrial Technology segment revenue is expected to be similar to 3Q16. Strong momentum expected in 2017 in RF Technology & Software segment.
